B E A U T I F U L 1970 VW Karmann Ghia convertible. This car is fun to drive especially with the top down on a nice summer day. It gets lots of attention wherever it goes. It starts easily, runs well, stops well. Per the previous owner the motor was rebuilt and now has just under 4K miles on it. It was built with around 10K on odometer, its a 2017cc with dual webber carbs and electronic fuel pump. Some of the work was done at Chico Performance. The exhaust is a Vintage Speed Super Flow stainless steel. The transmission is also relatively new with a rebuild and about 4K miles on it; its set up with a taller 4th gear (a.k.a. Freeway Flyer). Had a complete tune-up about 700 miles ago. I have all the receipts that were given to me from the previous owner as well as all of mine. The paint is in really nice condition, it is not show condition but looks real nice. The drivers side door has some orange peel look to it when you get real close. Wheels are EMPI brand Porsche Fuch style. Tires are like new, approx 2K miles on them. The breaks are in great condition. The car has been lowered, using drop spindles, about two inches in the front giving it that clean custom look. The convertible top is like new as is the boot. Both are high quality canvas and the top has a plastic window in excellent shape. The liner is is great shape too. Interior is beautiful two tone black and cream, the seats are fairly comfortable for an older car. There is a AM/FM Sony CD player with Infinity speakers too. The interior black carpet is in great shape and there are red and black Coco floor mats. All the electrical is in good working condition, Lights, Radio, Turn signals, horn, wipers, etc. The cigarette lighter is not wired and the clock and small interior light on the rear view mirror are not working. All chrome is in great condition, front bumper has some pitting on one blade, rear bumper does not. This car is currently licensed and has a clear Califonia State title. This car is rust free, the pans were replaced and all the rockers and panels are straight and clean. I am willing to work with your transporter/shipper at your expense (The buyers expense). A down payment of $1000 must be secured via PayPal within 24 hours of winning bid. The remaining balance is required via a bank transfer or cash within 7 days of the auction ending. This vehicle is being sold as is, there is no warranty either expressed written or implied. The vehicle must be picked up. Seller is willing to work with your transporter/shipper at the buyers expense. If you have any questions please ask, I will reply a s quickly as possible.
